Bali bead caps with flower petal beads

This was the first piece I made with my brother's funeral flowers. I embed flower petals into crystal clear beads. I used Sterling Bali bead caps and spacers and a toggle clasp for a rich look and feel. It is my most treasured piece in my collection.

Unlike other flower petal jewelry, I do not use clay or resin to make the beads. My beads are not a solid color. I handcraft flowers into crystal clear, glass like beads. My beads are more durable than glass, are shatterproof and are true heirloom quality.

My patent pending beadmaking process is the only one of it's kind. I make the only crystal clear flower petal jewelry.
